The works of Charlotte Brontë [Currer Bell]
THIS little book was written before either "Jane Eyre" or " Shirley," and yet no indulgence can be solicited for it on the plea of a first attempt.

It is chiefly through the translations of Rossetti and Pound that English-speaking readers have encountered Cavalcanti’s work. Pound’s famous translation, now viewed by some as antiquated, is remarkably different from the translation provided here in the graceful voice of poet David Slavitt. Working under the significant restraints of Cavalcanti’s elaborate formal structures, Slavitt rend…
